Takeaways

• 😀 Western music is a genre originating from Western countries, but it has become widely popular and developed in Eastern countries, including Indonesia.
• 😀 Western music can be used for various purposes, including education, politics, entertainment, religion, and health.
• 😀 Western music is divided into three main concepts: modal music, tonal music, and atonal music.
• 😀 Modal music is based on a specific scale with no special relationship between the notes, except for the tonic (or final note).
• 😀 The characteristics of modal music include a tonic (final note), monophonic texture (one voice), horizontal melody without accompaniment, and the use of pentatonic scales.
• 😀 There are seven types of modal scales: Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, and Locrian, each with distinct characteristics.
• 😀 An example of modal music is the traditional church music known as Gregorian Chant.
• 😀 Tonal music is a system where notes have both vertical (harmonic) and horizontal (melodic) relationships, with a central tonic note that the music revolves around.
• 😀 The characteristics of tonal music include being polyphonic (many voices), vertical and horizontal textures, harmonic accompaniment, and the use of 12-note systems.
• 😀 Classical music and jazz are examples of tonal music, which has a well-defined tonal center.
• 😀 Atonal music does not follow any specific key or tonal center, and it is free from harmonic rules and chord structures.
• 😀 Atonal music tends to avoid traditional tonal structures and can be highly experimental, as demonstrated by works like 'Semut Ireng' by Slamet Abdul Syukur.
